Optimising storage
Develop and demonstrate commercially focussed and relevant reservoir management technologies to improve injection, storage, modelling and monitoring efficiencies, materially lower costs for project proponents and make CO2 storage more widely viable
Reducing capture costs
Reduce capture costs and improve capture efficiency via the development and demonstration of new capture technologies.
Enhancing CO2 utilisation
Improve utilisation and storage efficiency and reduce utilisation and storage costs by developing and demonstrating new CO2 utilisation technologies
Enabling Hydrogen Storage & Utilisation
Facilitate the accelerated roll-out of the emerging low-emissions hydrogen economy in Australia, to the benefit of Members, the wider Australian community, and the environment.
Collaboration, Leadership & Education
Continuously enhance CO2CRC’s value to Members, government and other stakeholders via focussed and ongoing communication, collaboration, and educational activities.
